YYH Alphabet Icons!

[darlingfox]

I finally finished the icon series I've been working on! My self-appointed mission was to prove that YYH has depth: interesting characters, emotions that range from silly to angsty etc etc. I think I managed pretty well considering these are (almost) the first icons I've ever made.

A is for Asleep	B is for Betrayal	C is for Courage	D is for Death	E is for Enemy
F is for Family	G is for Garment	H is for Hurt	I is for Idiots	J is for Judge
K is for Knight	L is for Lust	M is for Meaning	N is for Novice	O is for Object
P is for Past	Q is for Quality	R is for Renegade	S is for Sorrow	T is for Temptation
U is for Unbelievable	V is for Victim	W is for Will power	X is for X-rated	Y is for Yummy
Z is for Zoom

General resources here
[A] lyrics: Westlife's Angel
[C] kanji: good night
[E] quote: Napoleon Bonaparte
[F] doujinshi: Seono Shou
[N] lyrics: Carly Simon's Last Night When We Were Young, kanji: beautiful
[T] doujinshi: unknown (tell me if you know!)

Comments

won't take any (I would but ...*sighs* I really need more icon space), just wanted to say that they're lovely and comment a bit:

Lust: this is so their song (each time I here Poison I think of Kurama and Karasu)
Family and Past are beautiful.
Victim and Incognito had me in stitches. *g*

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

Hee, thank you! ^_^

Yes, I hate the three icon limit, too. *sigh* Can't be helped. Incidentally, where did you get that A/C icon? It's so very pretty.

Okay, I have to admit: I had no idea the text in Lust was from a song. It was part of a brush set I downloaded and it just fit the icon. Whose song is it? I have to go to hunt the lyrics.

Incognito was actually sort-of inspired by this (http://www.stargatefan.com/fandom/cards/images/Card77.jpg) Stargate SG-1 pic I stumbled upon a long time ago. I lost the picture for awhile but the mental image remained and I just couldn't resist.

(deleted the one before b/c it didn't show where it was supposed to)

It was made by copinggoggles. just a sec, have the link here somewhere *goes off to search*

ah, here it is: http://www.livejournal.com/community/lower_tadfield/105931.html

The text is from "Poison" by Alice Cooper (link to the text: http://www.lyrics007.com/Alice%20Cooper%20Lyrics/Poison%20Lyrics.html)

*giggles* nice pic.

btw., I looked at your lj and noticed that you have a personalized comment link text thingy (whatever it's called). I was a bit baffled at first. Kurama terrifying his plants? but then my brain started working again (oh, probably Crowley. heh).

anyway, this reminds me: how did you do it? The personalizing, I mean. You have a free account (I looked at your profile. I'm rather nosy; and I wanted if I was right about the Crowley reference), so can you tell me how to do it? Please?

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I can't believe I missed that post. Usually I do check what's behind the lj-cuts in posts, including those in lower_tadfield. *shakes head*

That is Kurama/Karasu song. It's almost scary how much.

Be nosy all you want. ^_^ After all, I do the same thing when I have a chance and curiosity hasn't killed me. Yet.

So, let's see if I can explain the comment-thingy (main problem being that my LJ works mostly in Finnish).

Here's (http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=96) a page that has the code you'll need (It's the FAQ #96). I don't know if it shows everything to you in English, so just in case:

Click "Lue lisää" and you'll get more info.

The first code works with these styles: "Default LiveJournal", "Punquin Elegant w/ Sidebar", "Notepad", "Refried Paper", "Clean and Simple", "Disjointed" and "Magazine".
The second (after *) with "Generator".
And the last with "Tabular Indent".

Copy the code you'll need.

Click to change your user-info.

On the upper left corner it says "change accounts" or something like that. Click.

Now the screen will look like this (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v731/FoxDarling/1a2c8581.jpg).

Click away!

Scroll down to this (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v731/FoxDarling/84469f80.jpg) (your box is empty, I think).

And paste the code inside the box.

Replace "thought" and "share your thoughts" by whatever you want.

Did that help? If not, browse the FAQs. I stumbled upon #96 by accident and it took some time to find out how the system worked. :)

[viridian-magpie.livejournal.com]

*glomps* thank you so much. I just tried it out and it's working. Yay!

[deils.livejournal.com]

I´ve taken borrowed so many it should be considered a crime... ^//^

...

thankfully it is not! ::bows in front of an icon artist::

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

*gives a cookie* Thank you! ^_^

Borrow away, I promise I'm not coming after you with torches and pitchforks (or police).

[deils.livejournal.com]

::eats the cookie:: Crunch, Crunch.... Yummie!

First the torches and pitchforks, then the police. Always. The freak way. ^o^

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

One must honour the tradition of violent mobs, after all. Although it might be just a little bit difficult to be a mob all by myself... A torch and a pitchfork would be relatively easy to get, I think. ^.^

[spiritto.livejournal.com]

>_> Oh my lord.
Botan looks scary.

Good icons though!

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

Thank you! ^_^

That was my first thought, too, when I saw the picture. It's the eyes. She looks like she's ready to suck out your soul. Which is sort of ironic...

[spiritto.livejournal.com]

lol, she looks scary !_! Like she ready to attack you >_

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

We should be grateful she doesn't have her oar. Or a baseball-bat.

[perpetual-poet.livejournal.com]

Oh, I haven't seen an icon using Togashi's watercolors yet... nicely done... Though I think he stopped putting any effort into drawing Botan near the end... *rant for another say* "Meaning" totally makes my life, though, it's lovely. ^^

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

Ha, so I was accidentally the first one! I have the watercolour pics of Botan, Keiko, Hiei and Kurama, but are there any others? Yuusuke or Kuwabara?

Kuwabara/Yukina is my OT(het)P in YYH. They are clearly meant to be. ^_^

And thank you, reading these comments really makes my day.

[mookiegatto.livejournal.com]

Kuwabara/Yukina is my OT(het)P in YYH. They are clearly meant to be. ^_^

Sorry to pepper this post with random replies but I just had to nod vigorously in enthusiasm.

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

Random replies = good. *g*

[naitokasumi.livejournal.com]

Yes... Botan is kind of scary in the Death one, but Botan's always pretty no matter how's she's drawn! Mwahaha! No, I am not gay... -.- *blush* Sorry, inside joke, but you get the jist of it, anyhow.

B, M, Q, W, and Z rock, man.

X is brilliant, I'm so stealing. -^^-

...and crediting. ^^

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

It's the Eyes of Doom in that pic. Otherwise she really is pretty. Got to love a girl who can get away with blue hair and pink kimono without looking completely horrendous.

Enjoy! I'm glad you liked them.

[hieispike.livejournal.com]

Pretty icons! Snagging the "Y" one. Will credit when I use it. :)

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Half-nakedness keeps the world going. ^_^ Well, at least the YYH fangirls...

[akai_senshi.livejournal.com]

On "C": "Oyasumi" is "good night", not "goodbye". You want さようなら.

But otherwise, very pretty. :D

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

Damn! Me, I couldn't read it to save my life but the person who made the brush said it was "goodbye." Oh well, it works like that, too.

*edits*

And thank you! ^_^

[fucked-my-pussy.livejournal.com]

i took some, lol i especially love X ^^

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'm glad you liked them. ^_^

[aedictus.livejournal.com]

Hullo there... ummm, here via a friend's flist [viridian_magpie], stumbled over your icon post, can't be helped...would you mind terribly if I were to take the J one? All credit given, of course!

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

Take away, I don't mind. Actually, I'm quite flattered that people want to snag them. ^_^

But would you mind terribly if I'd friend you? I've been meaning to ask that since I saw you and your art in yuyu_doujin but somehow I never did it.

[aedictus.livejournal.com]

Oooh, please do. I'll return the favour, if you don't mind. [again] I abuse this expression hideously. *laughs*

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

*some other expression which has the same meaning as the poor, overused one* *g*

[mookiegatto.livejournal.com]

Stumbled here via yyh_icons and I remember seeing the doujinshi series you used for F. I miss the days when I could find them on the aestheticism website.

I'm sure I'll find room for some of them and will credit when I choose which ones and upload them. Thanks for posting the link.

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

Personally, I love that series to pieces and was lucky enough to save it on MSW documents when it was posted in yaoi_daily. Here's (http://www.geocities.com/kunimitsutezuka/directory.htm) a link to a site that has links to the posts. I don't know if all of the pictures are still showing, and you have to be a member of yaoi_daily to see them.

[anime-miz.livejournal.com]

Oh god..well too many fantastic icons.. took some...and will credit when used.. actually placed this entry into my memories...

[darlingfox.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked them. *feels special for being in memories* ^_^

[mermah.livejournal.com]

Awesome Icons. I couldn't resist V, so here I am!
^^;

And though I'm not really into the Hiei/Yusuke pairing, X is really funny!
